First Base - s/t lp (Hozac Records)

$13.99

Wait, is this a new band? We've positioned this incredible debut LP
along with our Archival series batch for good reason, as FIRST BASE are
one of the purest bands you're likely to come across, a true pop
milestone so authentic and airtight, you'll swear you've heard these
chords before. Originally one of the 'mystery bands on MySpace" from the
mid-2000's, FIRST BASE released a string of much loved singles &
EPs but kept a low profile despite being an active performing band in
their hometown of Toronto, but it wasn't their intent to be anonymous.
If you'll recall, they gained a wider appreciation after Personal &
the Pizzas covered their iconic "Nobody Makes My Girl Cry But Me" which
pushed them further onto the underground pop radar, and they returned
the favor by covering " I Don't Feel So Happy Now" on their last EP. But
affiliations aside, FIRST BASE are going to leave a deep scar on your
world, and they'll be dumping sugar and syrup deep in those wounds with
every repeated listen of this incredible pop debut. Like Jesus &
Mary Chain fronting the Ramones, covering Joey Levine, FIRST BASE are
pure honey-dripping salvation from the sadistic world we're trapped
inside, a true ray of sunshine on an otherwise cloudy day, just try to
not melt away. -VictimofTime.com
